I was cheking this article out, titled, Hollywood Takes on the Left and came across this:
Zucker's latest movie, An American Carol, is unlike anything that has ever come out of Hollywood. It is a frontal attack on the excesses of the American left from several prominent members of a growing class of Hollywood conservatives. Until now, conservatives in Hollywood have always been too few and too worried about a backlash to do anything serious to challenge the left-wing status quo.
The article is quite interesting (and fairly long), and contains info like:
Zucker was still nominally a Democrat when George W. Bush was elected in 2000. "Then 9/11 happened, and I couldn't take it anymore," he says. "The response to 9/11--the right was saying this is pure evil we're facing and the left was saying how are we at fault for this? I think I'd just had enough. And I said 'I quit.'"
He decided to write a letter to Boxer, sharing his disgust and telling her not to expect any more of his money. Having never done this before, he asked a friend with the Republican Jewish Committee for help. This friend recommended Zucker contact Myrna Sokoloff, a former paid staffer for Boxer, who had recently completed a similar ideological journey.
Regarding the movie (which I'm going to rent when I can find it):
The holiday in An American Carol is not Christmas and the antagonist is not Ebenezer Scrooge. Instead, the film follows the exploits of a slovenly, anti-American filmmaker named Michael Malone, who has joined with a left-wing activist group (Moovealong.org) to ban the Fourth of July. Along the way, Malone is visited by the ghosts of three American heroes--George Washington, George S. Patton, and John F. Kennedy--who try to convince him he's got it all wrong. When terrorists from Afghanistan realize that they need to recruit more operatives to make up for the ever-diminishing supply of suicide bombers, they begin a search for just the right person to help produce a new propaganda video. "This will not be hard to find in Hollywood," says one. "They all hate America." When they settle on Malone, who is in need of work after his last film (Die You American Pigs) bombed at the box office, he unwittingly helps them with their plans to launch another attack on American soil.
The entire film is an extended rebuttal to the vacuous antiwar slogan that "War Is Not the Answer." Zucker's response, in effect: "It Depends on the Question."
I hope he's like a reformed smoker. We need more of his type in Hollyweird to influence Sacramento.

A person properly schooled in right and wrong is safe with any weapon. A person with no idea of good and evil is unsafe with a knitting needle, or the cap from a ballpoint pen.
I remain pessimistic given the way BATF and the anti gun crowd have become tape worms in the guts of the Republic. - toad

According to IMDB, its release date is October 3rd. Go read the crying from the liberals at IMDB already:
Conservative Propaganda?
The discourse has been set to a new low.
Prediction: People with good taste will HATE this film!
you have to feel bad for Conservatives...
Whine, whine, whine.....
Apparently, YouTube has a trailer, and Apple does too. If you search Google for trailers, you'll catch some other comments, one is calling it an "anti Michael Moore movie", the blog for an "Angry Dakota Democrat" says: "It looks absolutely horrible and appears to not have much humor in it, but I actually want to go see this in the theater."
I might actually go to the theaters to see this one.

Outstanding. It's about time Mickey Moron got another kick in the nutsack.
I'll download it illegally, but then later buy the DVD to support the film maker ( just like I did with Team America )
I really didn't know there were any conservatives in Hollywood. I had an ancient issue of Soldier of Fortune magazine where John Milius defended his Apocalypse Now screenplay saying it wasn't an anti-war movie, it was intended to be an anti-lie movie. He said that the story about the VC cutting off the limbs of children who had been inoculated by US Special Forces medics was true and related to him by a friend who was a Green Beret vet ( who he said went on to 'take an appropriate response' to the local VC responsible ). He also said that he was virtually persona non grata in Hollywood and regarded as a barbarian because he was a gun owner.

Until this comes out, I recomend watching "The Tripper". California serial killer dresses up like Ronald Reagan and takes out hippies. Lots and lots of hippies.
